Gyuho Yeom

CEO, SB Bioscience

A Visionary Leader At The Helm Of Sb Bioscience

Gyuho Yeom is a leader who has been shaped by his life experiences. Growing up, he had always been ambitious, with a childhood dream of becoming a scientist and a CEO. To achieve this goal, he worked hard, created new paths for himself, went to graduate school, and earned a doctorate.

He thought he would be a CEO after gaining a lot of experience in the research field. However, fate had other plans for him. Mr. Gyuho entered a start-up competition for graduate students and emerged as a winner.

Following that, he established his company, SB Bioscience, through several investment firms impressed with their technologies. Today, as the CEO of SB Bioscience, he has brought the company to new heights and continues to grow and develop the business in innovative ways.

One of the biggest challenges for Mr. Gyuho was commercializing R&D items. He needed to gain the necessary business knowledge and networks because he had no experience with commercialization or company management. To address these issues, Mr. Gyuho decided to attend several conferences or fairs where he could introduce their technologies and apply them to accelerate programs that provide a business network in the bio-field. He continues to receive a great deal of assistance from those around him.

L eading the Company to Success

SB Bioscience was established to develop better therapeutic drugs and diagnostic devices using its aptamer platform. The company was founded by Mr. Gyuho and his wife, Juyoung Kang, who serves as the CTO. The two were researching different areas of the biotech field, with Mr. Gyuho researching DNA binding protein and Mrs. Juyoung researching Aptamer. Through collaborative research, they were able to develop sensitivity-improved diagnostic kits. "We hope to develop better therapeutic drugs and diagnostic devices," Mr. Gyuho says.

What makes SB Bioscience unique among pharma firms is their approach to aptamers. Aptamers are artificially created short sequences of DNA, RNA, XNA, or peptide that can bind to a specific target molecule or group of target molecules. Unlike typical aptamer companies, SB Bioscience creates aptamers that can be used in combination with antibodies. Antibody drugs that are currently available are clinically highly effective. The company does not want to compete with these antibody drugs but instead uses aptamers to solve problems that antibodies cannot.

The performance of SB Bioscience has been impressive in recent years. The company has performed five R&D and commercialization tasks since its inception and has made advances in antigen diagnostic kits and new drug technologies using aptamers. They are currently negotiating business agreements with several companies that want to commercialize their cuttingedge technologies.

Innovation in the Forefront

Mr. Gyuho believes that a key to fostering innovation within the organization is to never infringe on personal freedom. He encourages individual break time or leisure time, as it can help team members develop new ideas or innovative thoughts. Furthermore, despite the company's small size, they work as a team on each project. This allows for easy sharing of opinions and achieving good results, as it bolsters each other's knowledge. As a biotech company, there is no immediate return on investment, but all costs are invested in R&D to reap enormous profits in the future. To motivate his team members, Mr. Gyuho believes that performance pay is the most effective motivator. However, due to the company's small size and lack of funds, it is difficult to pay large performance bonuses. To overcome this, they distribute company stock similar to stock options and strive to improve as a company. This way, employees are motivated to work for a long time as they see the company's growth.

Mr. Gyuho is a leader driven by his ambition and business acumen and a visionary dedicated to using cutting-edge technology to improve people's lives. He is constantly looking for ways to overcome the challenges he faces, and takes a hands-on approach to manage SB Bioscience. His leadership style encourages innovation and personal freedom, which is evident in the company's success. He is not only a leader focused on the bottom line but also committed to the growth and development of his employees.

As the CEO of SB Bioscience, Mr. Gyuho Yeom is a true pioneer in the biotech industry. He leads the company toward a bright future and is poised to significantly contribute to medicine and healthcare. With his vision, determination, and leadership, SB Bioscience will become a significant player in biotechnology. In addition to his leadership and business acumen, Gyuho Yeom is also an expert in the field of biotechnology. His in-depth knowledge and understanding of the latest research and developments in the field allow him to make informed decisions and guide the company's R&D efforts in the right direction. This expertise is evident in the high-quality products that SB Bioscience produces and the numerous partnerships they have formed with other companies in the industry. Under his leadership, SB Bioscience constantly pushes the boundaries of what is possible in biotechnology. The company's focus on developing innovative solutions for diagnosing and treating diseases is making a real impact on people's lives. It has the potential to revolutionize the healthcare industry.
